Indonesian author Chairil Anwar wrote 75 poems, 7 pieces of prose, and 3 poetry collections. He also translated 10 poems and 4 pieces of prose. The majority of Anwar's original poems are included in his collections: Deru Campur Debu (1949), Kerikil-Kerikil Tajam dan yang Terampas dan yang Putus (1949), and Tiga Menguak Takdir (1950). In 1942, he wrote "Nisan" ('Gravestone'), which is generally considered to be his first poem. He wrote extensively during the Japanese occupation (1942–1945), at times having to change his poems to avoid censorship; for instance, the title of his best-known work, "Aku" ('Me'), was temporarily known as "Semangat" ('Spirit') to avoid censorship based on themes of individuality. After his death Anwar was criticised for plagiarism, with several works revealed to have been uncredited translations of foreign poems. His original works, unlike poems by earlier writers, used everyday language in an unusual manner in his poetry, mixing in words from foreign languages. (Full list...)

The 2018 anime television series Banana Fishconsists of 24 episodes. Adapted from the 1985 manga of the same name by Akimi Yoshida, the series was produced and animated by MAPPA, while development, promotion, and distribution was overseen by Aniplex. Banana Fish follows the relationship between Ash Lynx, a teenage gang leader in New York City, and Eiji Okumura, a Japanese photographer's assistant. The Banana Fish anime adaption was greenlit by Shogakukan, which published the original manga, based on a story proposal from Aniplex animation producer Kyōko Uryū. Uryū pitched the series for a 2018 release to coincide with the 40th anniversary of Yoshida's debut as a mangaka; the series would ultimately become part of a broader commemoration project to mark Yoshida's career. Each episode title references a literary work by a writer of the Lost Generation. (Full list...)
